Schalke vs Leverkusen Prediction 1: Leverkusen to Win

High-flying When the two teams face off this weekend in Gelsenkirchen, Bayer Leverkusen is anticipated to easily dismiss Schalke 04 despite their appalling record. Before last Sunday's 0-0 draw at home against Hertha Berlin, Die Werkself had been in excellent goal-scoring form for Leverkusen.

Schalke vs Leverkusen Betting Tips

They entered this encounter at VELTINS-Arena unbeaten domestically this season and with five victories to their name from their past six Bundesliga starts. They scored 13 goals in their four previous games.

Schalke vs Leverkusen Prediction 2: Under 2.5 total goals

Schalke is in terrible shape at the bottom of the standings after losing all nine of their opening games (D3, L6). Last Saturday, in a 4-1 thrashing at Borussia Monchengladbach, they conceded three goals or more for the sixth time this season.

Bettors are urged to support Bayer in administering a comparable penalty. Betting on an away win and less than 2.5 goals to be scored seems like a great idea given the statistics presented and the enormous gap between these two teams. In addition, we predict that Leverkusen will score 1-3, keeping them firmly in the running for the league's top spot.
